When i first decided it was a good plan and God's plan, to wait for sex till marriage one of my ideas was that if i waited, i would have a happily ever after marriage and everything would always be fine. I thought my wife would never be able to yell at me saying "you never loved me..it was always about the sex" like i heard in my own household a few times.

But...I think i wasn't being rational with my earlier thinking. There still will be fights and even a possible divorce, even if sex is waited for. I think just because we overcame one temptation doesn't mean everything will be fine always.
So..can i have some new positive light on why one still should wait? Will the marriage be at all better if the couple did wait?

Dose it look wise, god will appoint some, as his messenger, and then another messenger, saying exactly opposite things.

If No than where is god.

All the athiests had their experiences... all the Christians had theres... what about those inbetween? And heck, what about the other religions of the world? Shouldn't they get their representation? So go ahead, tell me of the thought processes that brought you to become agnostic. I don't want any athiest or Christian propaganda, but any other is okay, even if it says we're all going to hell (as long as it's not Christian, and that includes catholic). QUESTION REALITY! But don't expect an answer...

I remember reading an old medical manuscript (forgotten which one) which incidentally mentioned a certain pope and was talking (in passing) about his concubines - Does anyone have any further details - did past popes have documented concubines?

Christianity is essentially a criminal business enterprise... in fact, it is the world's longest running and most successful Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) scam. The product they are selling is the illusion of 'salvation'... and the 'pay plan' doesn't kick in until after you're dead. Meanwhile the victims (having been deceived into believing that it is their God-given duty) are out there busily recruiting MORE victims. What a racket! FORTUNATELY, it only works on those who are gullible enough, and sufficiently lacking in critical thinking skills, to fall for it. UNfortunately, THAT accounts for about 75% of the population of the USA. (There are a lot more people who DON'T know how to think properly than there are people who DO know how to think properly.) That is why there are a lot more religious people in the USA than there are 'Free-thinkers'... including Atheists. Also, Christians are generally too dense to realize that proselytizing (spreading the 'good news') is a key element of the Christian MLM MARKETING PLAN, which was instituted after Christianity lost the political power that had previously allowed them to simply torture and kill anybody who did not comply. Now, they obliviously try to just pester and annoy people to death, through persistent obnoxiousness. If you stop to think about it, you will realize that Christians are very much like the Borg, on Star Trek Next Generation: "You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile." I would not be surprised to learn that thoughts of Christianity provided the 'creative spark' for the Borg concept.

Interestingly, statistics on supernatural beliefs count the USA on a par with backward, developing Third World nations, rather than among modern, advanced industrial powers.

what would you do if the next day the doctor were to diagnose you cancer, and said that there was no hope for you? Plus, that you were going to die in 2 months? What would you do? Cry like a baby or go to God to see if he has mercy on you?

Jesus foretold that Israel will become a nation once again in the parable of the fig tree Matthew 24:32-35. Israel became a nation in May 14th 1948. What are the chances of the jewish people uniting again under one nation. There are many more fullfilled prophecies but this one a BIG one. What do you have to say about it?

Matthew 24
32 “Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. 33 So you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near—at the doors! 34 Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place. 35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.

Why waste your time hating One you claim you dont believe in? You don't see me bashing Santa Clause or the Easter Bunny. You don't believe in Him, fine, so take the nonbeliever's route and hide behind your lack of views, but don't whine about not knowing God when His invisible attributes are clearly seen. Reap what you sew, peace beyond understadning, miracle healings...clearly theres something bigger then you.

Do you believe that people while living must assimilate to your belief about God, and that resistance to this assimilation is futile, because it results in death/Hades/hell?

If so, please explain to those of us who think we are all going to heaven, why we aren't.

As an example, many Christian fundamentalists believe:

- The world is 6000 years old.
- Evolution is not true. God put everything here as is.
- Homosexuality is wrong, and they have the right to preach hate against them
- killing for democracy(oil) is okay but stem cell research is wrong
- Jesus is coming back, and will take them all to heaven, leaving the rest of us here

If you read what Jesus said (which has been filtered through many peopl before being written down) he doesn'say hate the Homosexuals, or the world is only 4000 years old, or that killing for one reason is better than another.

I think we should flush all the holy books away, and use our collective efforts to advance the human race rather than keep us stagnating about what god we believe.
